Strive for the Best Personal Health Care Treatment for YOU!

 

Chiropractic care works well for those who suffer with headaches, lower back pain, neck pain, leg/arm pain, sciatica and injuries sustained from car accidents.

Your Health is very important to us. We believe no one cares more about your problem than we do here at Carlsbad Chiropractic and we Strives for the Best Personal Health Care Treatment for YOU!

Many common complaints are headaches, lower back pain, neck pain, leg/arm pain, sciatica and those who suffer with whiplash from a car accident. We believe in rehabilitation, stretching and using physical therapy machines if it's for your best interest and overall fitness of your body. We are equipped with state of the art physical therapy machines. We have a spinal decompression table, which is wonderful for people suffering with disc compression, disc herniation, disc protrusion, arthritis, and vertebral stenosis. The usual symptoms are pains that tend to radiate out and possibly down one arm or both arms or it may be pain/tingling or numbness down one leg or both legs. When pain is referred down into the leg or legs it is commonly referred to as sciatica.

We know you have many concerns, such as, "Has the Doctor seen this condition before? Does the Doctor know what the problem is and can my problem be fixed?" Doctor Gamboa has heard these comments before many, many times and if your condition does requires a specialist, we can refer you to the proper specialist.

Dr. Desi Gamboa is highly skilled in the treatment of patients in pain. He has treated many patients with various conditions.

The most common tendency is to wait and hope the pain goes away and most of the time it does. Since starting in 1990, I now believe if the pains still persist after a week, you should come in for treatment. The longer it goes untreated the longer it takes to recover. This has almost always been the case. You may be able to nip it in the behind if you had you come in earlier. Most, if not almost always, people tell me, "I wished I came sooner"!

"Pain is there for a reason, the body is trying to tell us something. I have seen countless people in pain over the years, a person attitude changes when in pain. Our whole way of life and how we feel can make us miserable.

"I like being a chiropractor because I watch their pain slowly go away and then I start looking at SMILING happy faces! It can be a complete turnaround and it's Cool!!!

This spinal decompression information can be found in this website under the spinal decompression tab. We also use machines such as muscle stimulation, ultrasound, cold therapy and intersegmental traction. An X-ray machine is onsite should x-rays need to be taken.

We also have a flexion/distraction table which is great for opening up the joint and allowing the intervertebral disc fluids to be hydrated into the discs helping enlarge. The flexion/distraction table is also very good because it stretches the muscles of the middle and lower back.

We have a female License Massage therapist and offer Therapeutic Massage. Massage is used to prevent dysfunction, to relieve pain, to restore or augment function and to promote health. Massage therapy is an is an adjunctive therapy as part of physical rehabilitation. Massage has also been proven beneficial for many chronic conditions, including low back pain, arthritis, fatigue, diabetes, high blood pressure, immunity suppression, bursitis, headaches, depression, infertility, and more. Massage is covered on some health insurances.
